We have an even number of 6 right now, but coke wants to join us! So we need one more person (Al? Jakebert?) to send me their email address so we can have a league of 8 Draft is in three days, so no time to lose!

So I don't think that you can see the names of teams already in the league prior to registering, which was almost a big problem because I was seriously close to naming my team "Needs More Salt," which already existed.

I'm counting on Dez Bryant to take advantage of the Giants' weak secondary, but he's not going to be returning punts. Hope the projections hold true so that I can justify starting him over Colston. I'm kind of glad I'm playing him though because now I can actually see some results tonight, and I can learn more about how this shin-dig works.

Does anyone know how the waivers work in this league? I assume that I had last priority for waivers because I had the first pick in the draft, which resulted in Alec stealing DeAngelo Williams from me , but does the order change over time? Like, the last person to claim someone off waivers goes to the back of the line?

No Giants nor Cowboys on my BBS team... I like Dez a lot, but I had him last year and Romo was far too inconsistent.

I'm pretty sure all players go from waiver to FA on the same day - I think it's a few days after they're dropped, and I don't think it matters where you were in the draft line-up. I could be wrong, though; I've never hosted a league before.

Is there a disabled list or something? I'm tempted to dump my backup TE since he's pretty much worthless, fill his spot with someone more productive, and just shop around for a one-week replacement on Gronkowski's bye week. But what if Gronk gets injured and the Pats don't publicly confirm that he isn't playing until a couple days before the game? I'd have to get a new TE immediately, and either dump Gronk and risk having him get snatched from free agency, or dump another guy off my roster to make room. If you can put guys on a DL then that problem would be solved.

Sarah, I recommend clicking "My Team" at the top, and then "Projected Stats", if you haven't already - tells you how your players are expected to do. You have a couple players on your bench who are projected to do better than players you have "in".

To explain what we're talking about a little bit - when you go to "My Team", at the top, you have options to add or drop players. You can also trade with other people in our league. If one your players gets hurt or doesn't do as well as expected, you might want to drop him and pick up another player. Waivers are players who have been dropped from someone's team, but it's still within a certain amount of time before he can be redrafted. So if someone drops a player that you really want, you have to wait a few days before you can pick him up.

I hope you actually were confused and I didn't just tell you a bunch of stuff you already know :P Also, I shouldn't be helping you; you're the enemy this week
